Whoo-wee
Uh
Ooo-ooo
Uh
All my life I never stop to worry 'bout a thing
Open up and shout it out, never try to sing
Wonderin' if I've done it wrong
Will this depression last for long?
Won't you tell me
Where have all the good times gone?
Where have all the good times gone?
Where have all the good times gone?
Once we had an easy ride an' always felt the same
Time was on our side, we had everything to gain
Let it be like yesterday
Is that me or happy days?
Ma and pa look back on all the things they used to do
They never had no money and they always told the truth
Daddy didn't need no little toys
Mommy didn't need no little boys
Won't you tell me
Where have all the good times gone?
Where have all the good times gone?
Where have all the good times gone?
Ow!
Yesterday was such an easy game for you to play
Aw, but then let's face it, things are easier today
Guess you need some bringing down
Get your feet back on the ground
Won't you tell me
Where have all the good times gone?
Where have all the good times gone?
Where have all the good times gone?
Where have all the good times gone?
Where have all the good times gone?
Where have all the good times gone?
